[SOLVED] Hello, question about 12v rail

[Arbiter051]

I just updated HWinfo64 today and noticed the VRVin was added (At least I have never noticed it before). If I am correct I believe it is showing me the 12v rail?

I noticed that my 12v rail drops underload between 11.8-11.7 and the lowest I have seen is 11.692. When I say load, I mean I am listening to spotify and watching a couple of streams on twitch while also having discord open. When I load up a light game the numbers stay the same for the most part.

My PSU is a Corsair RMX850 gold. The Unit is 3 years old. Doing some research I see conflicting answers with those saying the PSU is on the way out, to answers saying that there isn't a problem and it is normal. I am just looking for some solid answers to my new found info ^_^

Thank you very much.

According to ATX standard (wiki-link) the tolerance for 12V is ±10% (±1.20 V) - so you're still within the limitations.

If this doesn't cause any problems (unstabilities) then there is nothing to fix.

11.4-12.6v are within specs

Ah alright thank you both. Everything has been working just fine and I just wanted to make sure.
